An interesting tidbit here, they seem to be a bit short of the mark.  This is from one of their own webpages... ( http://www.kcmsd.k12.mo.us/staff.asp?b=8&d=&id=5&catid=&detail=3 )

"The Superintendent has asked for help in turning the District
around
. He is creating an External Program Review Panel made
up of fifteen urban superintendents from around the country. The
panel is making plans to come to Kansas City next month to
help District leaders with reform efforts.

The Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary
Education will look at the new administration’s action plan as
part of a re-review on the District’s accreditation status. The
re-review is scheduled for October, when scores from the
Missouri Assessment Program are available.

"We plan to show state leaders we are on the right track. The
Kansas City, Missouri School District will become a
high-achieving school system
of which this city and state can be
proud," Dr. Taylor said.
"

Hummmmmm.

The KCMO School District is a local joke. It has spent several Billion$ under court ordered desegregation. The result: minority enrollment increases significantly, as whites flee to the suburbs.

The board spends most of it's time squabbling, firing superintendents, and trying to figure out how to keep the state from revoking it's accreditation.

It is a fine example of racial politics at it's very best.
